Inclusion of package: disktype, for the creation of Fedora LiveCD

raghukalyan · 04-02-2009, 01:34 AM

Hi,

I am playing with Fedora Live CD creation. Right now I want to include rpm: disk --> 'disktype-9-3.fc10.src.rpm'

Link: http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/fedora/...fc10.i386.html

In my LiveCD-test.ks, I have included disktype under the section %Packages. Also made sure respective rpm is placed in 'yum' repo.

Still, I get error unable to find package: 'disktype'.

Note: yum repo is included as:
repo --name=testappln --baseurl=file:///root/build/yum

%packages
disktype
testappln
#many other rpm list here
%end

Any suggestions?

You do realize that you are using a source rpm (.src.rpm) and not a binary rpm? Source rpms have to be changed(compiled) into binary rpms in order to run.

lazlow,

Thanks for getting back to me. I did place this rpm 'disktype-9-3.fc10.i386.rpm' in yum folder. This is a binary rpm, correct me if I am wrong.

ftp://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/re....fc10.i386.rpm

Still I get the error: Failed to find package 'disktype'.

Query: Base page says it requires these libs... * libc.so.6
* libewf.so.1

Do I place rpms for these in yum folder?

Regards,
Raghu
